An introduction to Lucian
First, let me apologise for the recent silence on the blog. The project team has been working hard to get ready to submit its first data to CCH, enabling them to produce the first visualisations of the website. These are exciting times and we may soon be able to put some of these visualisations online for public comment.
I just wanted to post this, which gives an introduction to Lucian’s In Praise of Chester and some representative samples from his work. I’ll be discussing these with Swansea University’s Centre for Medieval and Early Modern Research on Tuesday, January 20. Online comments are also encouraged. I’ll post an account of the fruits of the discussion in due course!

It’s always interesting to see how someone else translates passages one has already translated (in this case, the passages from Lucian that you’ve translated for your handout that also appear in translation in my Against All England). I wish I could be there to hear the discussion–I look forward to your report!
